Manowar does that to people.

sgt.bukkake 02-12-2007 08:28 PM

edguy - hellfire club anyone?

Tyler 02-12-2007 08:31 PM

Nah

Deth 02-12-2007 08:31 PM

Great album. I think Edguy are in the group of power metal bands who shouldn't be allowed to write ballads, along with Rhapsody and Helloween though.

[QUOTE=sgt.bukkake;14192689]edguy - hellfire club anyone?[/QUOTE]
Hellfire Club was my first Edguy album....Just got it a couple fo weeks ago. And I agree they shouldn't write Ballads. I hate most ballads the PM bands write. Angra's one that's past the test for me...

Iron Bars 02-13-2007 12:37 PM

[QUOTE=Cocaine;14192455]Aye.

Battle Hymns is better though.[/QUOTE]

That is still my favorite Manowar album, the Dark Avenger is such an epic song as well as the sort of title track.

:p

Edguy ballads aren't that good, yeah. But generally, a lot of PM ballads annoy me. Especially Dragonforce :-/

[QUOTE]All in favor of kicking Jammie out if he doesn't love Kings of Metal?[/QUOTE]

Sorry man, but the album dissapointed me. I'll give it another shot, but I'm with Stoic on this, way too traditional for my liking :-/ meh...sorry :(

Though I'll be checking out somke more stuff int he next few days. A Kamelot album, Dark Moor album and that Manticora album.

Stop covering up :mad:

Meh, you said too rocky or something. Close enough :p

Stoic 02-13-2007 02:03 PM

Yeah and the guys told me to get the album they told you but I never bothered to do so.

/crawls away in shame, dragging young Jammie with him.

Stormrider 02-13-2007 02:07 PM

Pfft.

NP Blind Guardian - Mirror Mirror

:D

I dont think I'm in that special BG mood though.

ArcLite 02-13-2007 02:08 PM

Yeah BG. Nightfall is just finishing for me.

Stormrider 02-13-2007 02:10 PM

I start to feel bad when I go a while without listening to them or IE :-/

So then, I start again, and I'm not always in that mood I guess. And I get scared that my tastes changed :upset: ...but then, I go back when I'm in that mood and I'm like :eek:

ArcLite 02-13-2007 02:11 PM

Is it bad that I listen to And Then There Was Silence literally everyday while in the shower?

Stormrider 02-13-2007 02:15 PM

No. But the shower ? :p

ArcLite 02-13-2007 02:16 PM

Yeah. For Xmas I got this bathroom radio/CD player. So now after starting the habit I can't shower without listening to it in its entirety

NP: IE - The Hunter

Stoic 02-13-2007 02:17 PM

Everyday?...


Why are you afraid that your tastes might change Jammie? Listen to whatever you feel like listening :)

Stormrider 02-13-2007 02:18 PM

[QUOTE=Stoic;14197638]Why are you afraid that your tastes might change Jammie? Listen to whatever you feel like listening :)[/QUOTE]

I mean I'm afraid of one day out growing Iced Earth and Blind Guardian. I probably won't admit it if that ever hapens.

:p

[QUOTE]Yeah. For Xmas I got this bathroom radio/CD player. So now after starting the habit I can't shower without listening to it in its entirety[/QUOTE]

Well, atleast it amkes taking a shower entertaining.

Stoic 02-13-2007 02:20 PM

[QUOTE]I mean I'm afraid of one day out growing Iced Earth and Blind Guardian. I probably won't admit it if that ever hapens.[/QUOTE]

But why? Because you will be admitting how much of a whore had you become for nothing? :p

Stormrider 02-13-2007 02:23 PM

[QUOTE=Stoic;14197678]But why? Because you will be admitting how much of a whore had you become for nothing? :p[/QUOTE]

No because I don't want to outgrow my love for those bands :p

I'm Jammie. And Jammie = BG and IE whore. That's how it is :lol:

Riva 02-13-2007 06:07 PM

Don't worry. I've grown out of bands, and rather than it being sad, it's more nice to listen and reminisce,

pate 02-13-2007 06:11 PM

^^^ Exactly.

Stormrider 02-13-2007 06:12 PM

I'm listening to Iced Earth's Horror Show atm. Excellenet stuff !

My most listened IE album right now.

NP Iced Earth - Phantom Opera Ghost

Tyler 02-13-2007 06:13 PM

Sometimes taking a break from your favourite band will make you appreciate them even more later on.

pate 02-13-2007 06:31 PM

Agreed.

So, Mystic Prophecy was named the co-headliner of one of the days of the Chicago Powerfest that I'm going to.

I'm revisiting them now, and I really like Regressus and Savage Souls, but don't like the other two. Discuss.

Hardhat 02-13-2007 06:33 PM

Have ticket prices come out for that yet? In my eyes, Novembers Doom and Martyr are enough reason to go. But a few other bands sound really good just from my brief listens, so I think its gonna be awesome.

pate 02-13-2007 06:34 PM

No, it'll be announced in a week or two.

I'm going for Solitude Aeturnus, but all of the bands so far are good also.

Shattered_Future 02-13-2007 06:54 PM

APOEIGNASEPOIGNSAPOIEGN

I want to go see Novembers Doom...

Lee, you better get some footage of them for me. :mad:

I like revisiting bands that I haven't listened to in a long time. Right now, I've been listening to, of all bands, Linkin Park.

Laugh if you may, but Hybrid Theory is actually a really cool album. I don't think there's a weak track on it.

pate 02-13-2007 07:11 PM

:lol: :lol:

Just make the commute for the Powerfest.

Shattered_Future 02-13-2007 10:43 PM

I can't...I don't have a license.

Just shoot the footage. Or else I will be forced to summon a thousand rabid badgers to rip off your genitals.

Stoic 02-14-2007 07:18 AM

[QUOTE=Cocaine;14199781]Sometimes taking a break from your favourite band will make you appreciate them even more later on.[/QUOTE]

I've experienced that. When the sheer fanboysm fades you see things much clearer and it helps you be more objective in the future.

pate 02-14-2007 09:21 AM

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future;14200947]I can't...I don't have a license.
[/QUOTE]

That's no excuse.

Shattered_Future 02-14-2007 10:27 AM

Well, come and get me then.

pate 02-14-2007 01:11 PM

No. That's just laziness on your part.

CaptainWaits 02-15-2007 09:56 AM

I bought the Blind Guardian DVD yesterday. EPIC! And a good quality film. Hansi's different than what I expected he'd be like on stage...It's like he's letting the power come to him....

Stormrider 02-16-2007 07:54 AM

[QUOTE=Cocaine;14199781]Sometimes taking a break from your favourite band will make you appreciate them even more later on.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, that's true. I went for almost a year of listening to stricly Iced Earth most of the time, and some other stuff at other times. Then Blind Guardian came into the mix. Yeah, for a few months now, I've been listening to those 2 less then before, (except for binges) and yeah. It is better.

Magnitude 9 recommendations anyone?

Stormrider 02-16-2007 10:53 AM

What do you guys think of Dark Moor ? I have a bunch of songs, and I'm going to go and get Gates of Obivion.

I like the stuff I've heard from them :)

I'll also be getting Kamelot's Black Haloe, so that will be good.

Stoic 02-16-2007 11:48 AM

/owns a magnitute 9 cd which he hasn't heard. wtf is wrong with me :upset:
